About

In a darkened room I present sequentially formed sculptures on a rapidly spinning armature. A synchronized strobe light supplies the illumination. The images exist in real time and viewers are able to share the same space with them. The conflict between sensory information and logic recreates the state of dream reality. The scientific basis for the visual illusion is called the persistence of vision.

Gregory Barsamian was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1953. He received his BA in Philosophy from the University of Wisconsin and currently resides in Brooklyn, NY.
